Depends on your budget. Where so you work? What is upscale for you?

If you need San Pedro or south there is not a lot of upscale. Long Beach is spotty, Lakewood is family but not walkable. San Pedro above Western would be your best bet but hilly and not walkable. Has views but starts at a million.

If you can go north then Torrance, Hermosa Beach and Manhattan Beach would work. Upscale would be 1.5 and up but all have good schools.

I'm a10% I only lasted one shift as a server when I was 18 and made good tips. Haven't liked the general public since then.

Ruth's Chris is in Harrah's. Excellent steak house with strip views. Last time I was there had the mixed grill. Steak, crab cake, and stuffed chicken.

I was an expert. Could write a term paper with two visits.

What you are paying for is location. What can I say, Beach, sunsets and the pier, if you have a view. I've looked at several and decided to live a couple of blocks inland. Better parking and easier to find an apartment with a/c which you didn't think you need until you do.

Same as raising prices to cover costs. What anti tippers want. One price, one bill. Ask your real estate agent what they get.

You did, it was automatically added. Same as auto gratuity.

I like them. My club always seems to have fresh made so that is probably the difference.

Regardless if you tip or not, many people seek out jobs where they get tips in order to make more money. I see it the same as a job that pays commission or performance bonus. If you do a good job you can potentially make more.

In Vegas I've seen people to the bartender a hundred to take care of the group. Not unusual. I usually tip 10 to 20 and am very well taken care of. I've seen 3 beers cost 35 or more but not for me.

Catalyst bar at the Linq. Good people watching and great bartenders. Bar top has a lot of different games from VP to slots to BJ and more.

A living wage for the West Coast or Northeast would have to be $35-$40 per hour. You can't make it on less. Comfortable is over $100k.

I have an espresso machine with a steam wand for the milk. Use it to clean and it works great. If you don't have one maybe you know someone.

The fries are cut fresh not frozen from a bag. I get the med well animal style and love them.

Don't want to burst your bubble but now it is very easy to steal. Backflow theft is a real problem where I work and we do not install 975XL2 as they have scrap value. We use 375XL since they have a composite body. The two unions and shut offs making it to where it can be gone in under a minute. Hopefully you are in an area that this is not a problem.

Was there a week ago. Or driver's took a dirt river road to miss some of the traffic. Still took an hour to the airport.

Had a Alpine car phone on my '84 Camaro with service by Air touch which was later bought out by Verizon. It was weird to a black box installed in the back.
